Pre-flight Card, Transparent Video Overlays & Smart Brand Captions

Pre-flight Card & Assembler Upgrades

We added a Pre-flight Card to the ad assembler workflow to give you complete control over how the system selects footage and interprets your creative goals.

• Pre-flight Configuration: Before the assembler begins building, this card lets you manually add tag filters to include or exclude specific content, while providing a text space to drop in extra instructions for the AI assembler.
• Magnetic Audio Snapping: Video segments automatically snap to your voiceover boundaries for perfect alignment.
• Audio Protection: The automated assembler is now blocked from overwriting your custom voice recordings during timeline revisions.

Transparent Overlays

We expanded your timeline creative limits by introducing native transparency support directly into the video pipeline. This allows you to layer complex visual graphics directly over your raw content assets.

• Transparent Video Tracks: You can now place transparent videos directly onto overlay tracks to build dynamic brand layouts.

Smart Brand Captions

Automated captions are now much easier to read thanks to an upgraded timeline layout pass. The editor now respects specific brand terms and natural pacing to keep text layouts clean.

• Protected Brand Phrases: Automated captions now prevent multi-word brand entries from breaking awkwardly across lines.
• Smart Pagination: Captions use a layout pass to keep text breaks balanced and natural to read.

More Good Stuff

• Byte-Range Preview Streaming: The editor preview and renderer load media files faster by streaming only the exact frames required instead of downloading or pre-buffering full files.
• Project-Level Language Settings: Easily choose a primary language for your project to automatically guide auto-saves and AI voice generation setups.
• Smarter AI Voice Allocation: Automated workflows like the Ad Wizard now smartly match language-appropriate default voices and high-quality AI speech models to your project settings.
• Context-Aware Audio Trimming: Text transcripts and AI voice regenerations now match your exact timeline crops, preventing out-of-bounds dialogue issues.
• Expanded Timeline Zoom: Zoom out much further across the canvas timeline to review long-form video arrangements in one view.
• Expanded Image Support: The renderer now directly accepts GIF, BMP, TIFF, and HEIC image files.
• Audio Recording Controls: The interface now requests microphone permission cleanly and lets you filter inputs by specific device.
• New Canvas Aspect Ratio: Added a native 4:5 video layout option complete with asset cell fallbacks.
• Harvesting Drawer Updates: Easily see related sibling files and harvested clips together in the file drawer.
• Library Processing Indicators: Added a clear visual indicator tag to identify newly uploaded files that haven’t generated extracted scenes yet.
• Dark-Mode Visual Polish: Improved theme color tracking and layout consistency across the primary toolbar and project navigation panels.
